02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 875 ft is about 13°C. Every 1,000 ft of density altitude adds roughly 8 percent to a turboprop's takeoff distance and 5 percent to its landing distance. The table uses Piper Meridian book numbers (2,438 ft takeoff and 2,110 ft landing over a 50 ft obstacle at sea level, ISA, max weight) as a reference airplane; heavier turboprops and light jets scale the same way from their own POH figures.

Conditions	Density altitude	Takeoff est.	Landing est.	Landing × 1.5
Standard day (ISA, 13°C)	875 ft	2,609 ft	2,202 ft	3,303 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,075 ft	2,843 ft	2,329 ft	3,493 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,275 ft	3,077 ft	2,456 ft	3,683 ft
35°C afternoon	3,485 ft	3,118 ft	2,478 ft	3,717 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (03/21, 4,112 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,717 ft needed). The percentages are a generic rule of thumb applied to one reference airplane, not certified performance data for any specific aircraft, and the runway size categories describe the runway, not your airplane's suitability. Verify with the approved flight manual before every flight.
